:welco:hope you enjoy it here!

Death threats are nothing new.  It doesn't matter what side you are on with any issue, some ass clown will do it.

So touching

If he truly was, his son wouldn't have had to wait until 20 to come-out.  ::)

Figuring out who you are is a tough rough for most people. But trying to figure out if your gay is really rough. Some people who are gay, don't want to be gay. But they know that trying to be straight will be misery and most likely a suicide.

A supportive parent stands by their child through all these struggles and is there for them with open arms when they make it to the other side.

What an absolute moron… now I need to walk off, grab a coffee and calm myself down.

i hate trump

good for her

@Jason287:

There are a few possible explanations for this that go deeper than just “the U.S. won’t publicly support LGBT people.” There’s a clause in there condemning the execution of mentally ill people—executions the U.S. carries out on a routine basis. But the more likely explanation is that our good pals in Saudi Arabia objected specifically to the resolution. It’s one of ten countries where same-sex relations are still punishable by death, and it’s not just an obsolete old law that remains on the books—two transgender people were recently tortured to death by Saudi police. (Also worth reading—this Atlantic piece on homosexuality in Saudi Arabia.)

Saudi Arabia, along with Russia and Egypt, tried to introduce amendments that would “dilute” the impact of the resolution, but these were voted down. (The U.S. supported or abstained from each amendment.) The U.S. has a longstanding strategic alliance with Saudi Arabia, who, along with Israel, is our best ally in the Middle East. Per Nicholas Kristoff in the NYTimes, Saudi Arabia is currently conducting a “war” that amounts to a series of heinous war crimes—the purposeful bombing and starvation of civilians among them—with the support and weaponry of the United States, and we’ve turned a blind eye to their domestic civil rights abuses for a long time.

There’s another explanation, which is that the U.S. simply didn’t want to vote for any bill that criticizes the death penalty in any way. But that would be strange, since although the resolution “recognized” that many states found the death penalty to be a form of torture, it didn’t call for outright abolition—just a humane application in those nations where it still existed.

Regardless of the true reason behind the vote, it’s yet another callous shoulder-shrug by a representative of the Trump administration toward a minority group in the United States.

The headlines derived from that story were really misleading giving the impression that the US was okay with extending the death penalty for homosexuals. That feeds the current narrative about the Trump administration.

If you go online and actually read the resolution, you'll see that it condemns the death penalty itself and describes it as a form of torture. THAT is why the US and Japan didn't sign it. That six countries still execute people because they are gay had nothing to do with why several countries chose not to sign. To me, the resolution was an attempt to shame countries into abolishing capital punishment and using a UN resolution in that manner is wrong.

About time.

If you actually look, it's not "right wing", but mainstream.      These groups are the same ones that support the President, who is an islamist.

While Turkey wants to join the EU, they don't care about blatantly violating the human rights of LGBTs because they know the west will excuse it away, like they do with everything else muslims do.

@raphjd:

There are 2 ways doctors create a penis for f2m; Metoidioplasty and Phalloplasty.

Thanks raphjd. 😄

It WOULD be women, LOL. Manly macho strait men type men can have a good time looking at and fantasizing about two women getting off together, but admit that a gay or openly bi jock being naked in the same locker room that they are also in, equally naked– no, no. Suddenly they become snowflakes, fragile and delicate because without butch bluffing, someone might confuse them with being enough of a man that they can put their dick anydamnwhere they want and still be certified and qualified for the breeder's cup.

Personally, I think Australian Rules Football is THE greatest team sport. Men of all sizes, from "talls" to "smalls" have their role to play, and they play it with amazing skill and precision while wearing skimpy shorts that often bulge, and sleeveless shirts that emphasize their physical shape as much as their often straining pants do.

Anyone who thinks they are as much of a man as, say, Ben Cohen (str8 but noway narrow) should go the route of Nick Younquest and flaunt the visual power of their fitness and virility. Not that anybody asked me, of course. And Aussie Rules is not the sport that Ben and Nick play, but you get the gist. If all those soccer players in South America (and elsewhere!) can freely flop and flaunt and wank, everyone should just get in on the act and let it become the expected norm, not some ridiculous Victorian-holdover anomaly.

Ah, well. Now that the aussie rules torrent site has been clobbered by the authorities lest anyone make a profit from letting the world view games they would otherwise never see, this new season is already passing me by. Shameful.

The longer  this goes on the  more  it  really does  look like he is  a puppet.

Any action by the President that results in a 5 year old citizen being detained is a total failure.
